Follow-up Comment #3, bug #42062 (project octave):

Sorry for the missing info. 
Compatibility testing was done on both R2010b and R2011, and both return:

+Verbatim+
>> normrnd(1,0)

ans = 

     1
-Verbatim-

Matlab R2010b and R2011 return

+Verbatim+
>> normpdf(1,1,0)

ans = 

   NaN
-Verbatim-

I agree that normpdf should behave this way, but still think normrnd should
not. I could be persuaded it is only a compatibility issue (and I have
sanitized inputs to work around compatibility issues for the moment).
